PeaceNovato to give away cake, gun locks at farmers market

Helping stop gun violence may be a piece of cake for gun owners and others who stop by PeaceNovato's table at the Novato Farmers Market on Tuesday.

The peace organization is celebrating a 10th birthday party and is giving away gun locks from 5 to 7 p.m. at the market on Grant Avenue in downtown Novato. The party honors the founding of PeaceNovato.

Starting Tuesday, PeaceNovato will be distributing free gun locks to gun owners to help reduce the number of unsecured firearms in the community.

The gun locks were provided by the National Shooting Sports Foundation and the Novato Police Department. PeaceNovato will continue to give away the gun locks as long as the supply lasts.
